Identification of Trypanosoma cruzi Polyamine Transport Inhibitors by Computational Drug Repurposing [PDF]
Trypanosoma cruzi is the causative agent of Chagas disease, a parasitic infection endemic in Latin America. In T. cruzi the transport of polyamines is essential because this organism is unable to synthesize these compounds de novo.

Ionic current inversion in pressure-driven polymer translocation through nanopores [PDF]
We predict streaming current inversion with multivalent counterions in hydrodynamically driven polymer translocation events from a correlation-corrected charge transport theory including charge fluctuations around mean-field electrostatics.

Protective Role of Spermidine in Colitis and Colon Carcinogenesis.
BACKGROUND & AIMS Because inflammatory bowel disease is increasing worldwide and can lead to colitis-associated carcinoma (CAC), new interventions are needed. We have shown that spermine oxidase (SMOX), which generates spermidine (Spd), regulates colitis.
